Well, one championship game in a head to head league, and two third place games in the other two. I'm still in first in my points league, but not by much. Not a very big cushion. I'm worried. I have to figure out which two QB's outta this bunch I should start: Favre, Cutler, Rothlisberger and Romo. Romo is a sure thing I think, but I'm not sure about the other. It really could mean the difference between first and second place.

Cutler is hot and cold, Favre is flailing (yay!), and Roethlisberger is also hot and cold...hmmm....

Yea. Luckily Favre came through in the second half on Monday. The Bears are playing Detroit this week, so I think Cutler may be a good choice. But his rabid inconsistencies scare me.

Even inconsistencies can beat the Lions. :p

This is very true, but it doesn't mean I'll get the required points to win the league. :p

Cutler could throw 3 interceptions and still win the game, but I'd be screwed.

*shrug* True.

Plus, I'm not sure whether Stanton or Culpepper is starting, haha. THEY could very likely throw interceptions as well.

Well, not too shabby, two first place finishes, one third place finish and a fourth (ugh) place finish. I continue my stellar performance in fantasy football for the third year in a row. :D

So, if all 3 of my goalies are playing tonight, how do I figure out which ones really will be playing and who will be on the bench? What's the best way?

There was a website that you could use that was really good at keeping it up to date on a daily basis, but now you have to pay for it.

Try going to each teams individual site and see if there's anything about who's starting there. If you can't find that, find the cities most major newspaper and go to its sports section. They usually report on it every day there's a game.

NHL.com is useless. I decided to bench Turco because the Devils are playing the Stars and I have Brodeur too. Playing Brodeur and Rinne tonight.

And called that one right. Brodeur shut out the Stars 4-0

Well no matter what, you don't ever want to sit a guy like Marty if his team is playing. The way that he plays, coach lets him decide when he wants a break. And when he's on fire like he is, he'll play until he slumps. Three shutouts in as many weeks, two against the "champs". Yea, he's on fire.

What is up with all these wimpy hockey players who have to go on the DL when they lose a few teeth? Gosh. :p

I dunno. They definitely don't make hockey players like they used to. :p

Chris Kunitz is out for a month because he had to have surgery on a torn abdominal muscle that he's been playing with. I'm guessing that they waited until his recovery would team up with the Olympic break though to give him a little extra time

Nope.

Oh, and keep Eric Staal's wife in your thoughts/prayers. Her sister died of cancer earlier this week.

I wouldn't call a throat contusion and having to undergo a tracheotomy weak

Different guy. The one hit in the throat isn't the same as the one who got hit in the mouth.
